With 40 sweet and savory gluten-free recipes, a celebration of breadmaking and one innovative Paris bakeryIn bread making, rice flour is usually considered less than preferable, especially when it comes to volume and texture. Supposedly only wheat flours allow bakers to get the crust thickness and crumb softness just right. However, a free-thinking duo has defied this rule by inventing new techniques for making a delicious range of alternative flourûbased breads and baked goods.
